AI feels like a real mania, a genuine collective break from reality among the ruling class. They might as well be pouring billions of dollars into an attempt to replace all jobs and knowledge with a large bronze idol of Dagon.
When viewed from their Randian perspective – in which the moral, physical, genetic, and intellectual superiority of an elite few is threatened by illiterate, brutish, ignorant, and inferior masses – this makes perfect sense.
What a twisted, nasty worldview. Utterly devoid of humanity or sense.
